So I’ve just recently learned that I can stuff 37” tires under my leveled ram1500.
However I am now reluctant to do so because I am also learning
Of the lack of gearing options for the front end on the 12 and up models.
I have read up on the earlier diff swap to the newer models and have a couple of questions:
1 I am concerned about the durability of the earlier diff style compared to the newer and wonder if the trade off is worth it for deeper gears? Especially since there is no selectable locker option that I can find..
2 If the swap isn’t worth it from a durability stand point and I decide to stick with 35” does a swap to a 392 from my 355 make sense?
I’m hoping some with real world experience involving these scenarios will chime in on this.
I am setting this up as an expedition/overland truck so durability is a very big concern for me.
